Think booking a flight is easy?

That is until you realise your cheap flight ticket does not include baggage, your layover is way too long, and changing your ticket costs more than the flight itself.

These common flight booking mistakes happen to more travellers than you think. But the good news? You can avoid them and book flights smarter - while still getting the best deals.

For a limited time only, Fayyaz Travels has exclusive flight discounts and special deals to help you book hassle-free. Before you confirm your next flight, make sure you are not making these costly mistakes.

1. Booking the Cheapest Flight Without Checking the Details

That low-cost fare looks tempting, but after booking, you realise:

• No baggage allowance
• No seat selection
• No meals included
• Non-refundable ticket with high cancellation fees

By the time you add everything up, your cheap flight ticket is more expensive than a standard fare.

How to Avoid It

✔ Always check what is included in the fare before booking
✔ Compare the total cost, not just the base fare
✔ Book through a trusted travel agency in Singapore for flight deals to avoid hidden charges

📍 Check our latest flight deals with no hidden fees.

2. Not Reading the Fine Print on Your Ticket

Many travellers overlook the ticket restrictions, only to realise later that changing a date costs more than the flight itself.

How to Avoid It

✔ Check if your ticket is refundable or non-refundable
✔ Understand the fees for date changes and cancellations
✔ Work with a Singapore travel agency offering flight discounts to get flexible booking options

3. Booking Flights With Long and Inconvenient Layovers

A long layover might seem manageable when booking, but when you are stuck at an airport for ten hours with no proper food or rest, it feels like a mistake.

How to Avoid It

✔ Avoid layovers longer than four to six hours unless necessary
✔ Choose flights with reasonable transit times and good airport facilities
✔ Use a Singapore travel agency for discounted flights to find routes optimised for convenience

📍 Want a better flight itinerary? Explore our routes and promotions.

4. Choosing Flights With Bad Timings

That 6 AM flight seemed like a great idea - until you realise you need to leave for the airport at 3 AM.

How to Avoid It

✔ Check if your flight time allows for a smooth airport experience
✔ Consider overnight flights for long-haul travel to make the most of your trip
✔ Book through a travel agency in Singapore for flight deals to get options with ideal departure times

📍 Not sure which flight schedule works best? Let our experts help.

5. Not Comparing Different Flight Routes

Many travellers assume the first flight route they see is the best deal. In reality, a small tweak in departure time or a different transit airport could save you hundreds.

How to Avoid It

✔ Compare flights with different stopover cities—some have lower airport taxes
✔ Look for alternative flight times that might have better fares
✔ Work with a travel agency in Singapore offering special flight promotions to find the best price and most convenient route

📍 Looking for the best flight options? Browse our discounted fares.

6. Booking Flights Too Early or Too Late

Many people believe booking months in advance guarantees the best price, while others wait for last-minute deals. Both strategies can backfire.

How to Avoid It

✔ The best time to book is one to three months before domestic travel and two to eight months before international flights
✔ Monitor flight prices and book when fares are stable, not fluctuating
✔ Secure special airline promotions through a Singapore travel agency to guarantee savings

7. Forgetting to Check Visa and Entry Requirements

Not all destinations allow visa-free entry for every nationality. Some require pre-approved visas, while others offer visa on arrival but with restrictions.

How to Avoid It

✔ Check the visa requirements for your destination before booking
✔ Confirm if you need additional travel documents such as vaccination certificates
✔ Work with a Singapore travel agency offering visa assistance to ensure a smooth process
